    Rover 200 Alloys for my Roadster

    Hi
    I've acquired a Rover 200 with quite nice six spoke alloys. it's on the way to the scrappers soon with 185/55/15 tyres. The alloys look like they would fit the Marlin ( they fit on the spare wheel studs so the holes are in the right place) but do I need spacers for the front wheels?
    your help would be valued. Not quite Marlin open top weather for me yet!

      Rover 200's use a 4x100mm PCD. Standard Marlin (Marina) is 4x3.75" (95.25mm)
      They might slide onto your spare carrier because the standard Marina studs are only 3/8"UNF.

      Standard Marina offset is 1/2" (13mm) and the Marina PCD is common with many different early Triumphs.

      Loads of Marlin Reference can be found documents here or there.
